Thanks for this, an update was indeed needed.
I've tweaked your version a bit, as SSH or daemon usage is IMHO too much
in-depth detail for a package description text. Here's what I've made
of it:
Description: fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool
rsync is a fast and versatile file-copying tool which can copy locally
and to/from a remote host. It offers many options to control its behaviour,
and its remote-update protocol can minimize network traffic to make
transferring updates between machines fast and efficient.
.
It is widely used for backups and mirroring and as an improved copy
command for everyday use.
.
This package provides both the rsync command line tool and optional
daemon functionality.
Opinions?
